Academy’s Weapon Replicator

Chapter 6 Golems (3)

… … like that.

Until nightfall, Edwin hid himself in the nearby bushes.

There has been no movement to find him within Constell.

Relieving his rush, Edwin waited patiently.

Eventually, in the evening, the students returned home in the still darkness.

If you stay here for more than this, you may be caught by other faculty members or janitors. Edwin decided to move.

“Follow.”

The ground cracked and the soil poured out with rainwater. The golem, which had been buried under the ground, raised itself.

I should think about cleaning the dirty body, but that’s a matter for later.

Edwin moved quickly, being alert to the keys.

Rather, it was a decision that no one would meet even if there was a slight noise.

That judgment was correct. Until you pass the training room.

“… … Ugh!”

Edwin saw someone coming out of the training room entrance.

I quickly look around, but there is no room to hide.

‘No, hold on.’

Edwin focused his eyes on the person coming out of the training room entrance.

It was Elin.

She had her eyes open, but there was no expression on her face, and she was out of focus.

‘… … sleeping.’

Elin’s sleepwalking is famous within Constell. Edwin, a friend, of course knew.

I say it’s not sleepwalking, it’s about processing sleep and behavior at the same time for efficiency, but it’s no different to other people.

‘thank god. Let’s pass carefully.’

Elin, who became like that, does not wake up for a while. When it senses a crisis, it wakes up on its own, but I don’t even want to touch her now.

Edwin held his breath. He reduces the sound of footsteps as much as possible, and slowly falls off the path Elin is walking.

Golems are louder than Edwin, so they can’t move much. Still, I wouldn’t bump into Elin.

The distance between Jerbuck and Elin grew closer. Edwin looked at her approaching with his eyes closed.

Elin slowly came to Edwin’s place,

passed right by

‘… … Whoa.’

I let out a soundless sigh.

‘Okay, from here to the lab.’

Edwin was about to move again.

At the end of his sight, Elin, who was leaving, was briefly caught.

Edwin stood still.

Elin,

was standing

A step that must be taken.

A sleep that will never wake up.

If she didn’t sense the crisis, she would just go her own way and she stopped.

The body, which turned its back, suddenly turned to the side.

He tilted his head and a voice that slowly came out.

“… … The smell of blood.”

“!”

Edwin took a breath.

Elin’s focus returned. Her eyes sank deeply.

She turned her gaze straight to Edwin.

“… … you.”

Elin looked at Edwin’s face.

It is obscured by darkness and not clear.

However, the fact that his expression was cold and frozen could be known just by smelling the surrounding air.

“What did you do?”

Edwin didn’t answer. Rather, it took a step backwards.

Elin’s eyes narrowed at that sight.

“What’s next to you?”

Elin took one step closer to Edwin.

The right hand goes to the sword handle already worn on the waist.

Elin glanced at the golem guarding Edwin’s side.

“Is it yours?”

High-grade metal, a very high level of perfection, and overflowing mana.

Edwin couldn’t have done this.

His knowledge and skills are not the problem, but equipment and funds.

“He smells like blood.”

There was no hesitation in Elin’s steps.

As she gradually grew closer to Edwin, she glimpsed fear in Edwin’s face.

this, please

“… … Did you kill someone with that?”

“Oh no!”

“Then why are you begging like a shit dog?”

Animosity rises from Elin’s body.

No matter what Edwin did wrong, Elin can forgive him whenever he can. She is Edwin’s friend, and she believes in Edwin.

But if you kill a person, that is murder using a golem, and you try to hide it.

“Edwin. I’ll ask you again.”

Elin drew her sword.

The blade, which clearly reflects the moonlight, is as cold as her eyes.

“What did you do with that?”

“… … I was just thinking.”

Edwin wandered his gaze, as if running away from something.

“I was just thinking that I shouldn’t be caught, but this golem stalks the ‘Aktobers’ as he pleases… … .”

“… … You mean, you killed me?”

“no! I didn’t kill you!”

“Are you sure?”

Edwin shut his mouth.

Elin’s eyes became infinitely cold.

“Who is that golem?”

“… … .”

“You took something that wasn’t yours, used it to assault people, ran away without checking whether he was dead or not, and tried to hide the golem?”

Every word of Elin turned into a blade and pierced Edwin.

Edwin bit his lip. I couldn’t make any excuses.

“Are you really down? Edwin.”

“… … ! Say it like that-!”

Huwoong, the golem rushed towards Elin. He grabbed the spear he was holding with both hands and cut it horizontally.

Elin stepped back with a light movement.

“… … Edwin.”

“… … .”

Edwin was so startled that he just stared blankly.

If Elin had just attacked, he would have died.

Did I really want that?

Even the shadows under my feet in the moonlight are dizzy. It felt like the darkness kept creeping up from my feet and encroaching on me.

“Really, if you think about it, you can see that the golem moves by itself. That’s too much.”

The golem’s attack just calmed Elin.

I changed my mind a bit.

—That golem is not normal.

Edwin wouldn’t really think he was going to kill him. Even with that thought, this kind of attack is not like Edwin.

If that expression isn’t acting, even you are perplexed by the movement of the golem.

“Edwin, stop the golem.”

“What, what?”

“Tell me to turn it off. You don’t want to do anything wrong, do you?”

“That’s right.”

Edwin came to his senses.

yes, you can turn it off If that happens, the golem won’t move as he did after reading his thoughts again.

Why didn’t I think of that until now?

Edwin reached out to the golem and-

… … I looked at Elin, still not sober.

“… … Elin.”

“why?”

“Are you going to tell someone else?”

“… … .”

Elin is so unfamiliar with Edwin’s appearance right now, it’s rather embarrassing.

Where did the just and strong-willed Edwin, whom she knew, go?

Although he was a little timid, he was very considerate and even if his posture was lowered without realizing it, he never collapsed.

Where is Edwin, who didn’t even think about a way out of the norm?

“… … Edwin.”

“Answer me!”

“… … .”

“If this golem kills or kills people, I’m done. It’s dangerous just to steal a golem, but if I kill someone, it’s me and me, it’s the end.”

Edwin pulled out his hand towards the golem.

I have no intention of releasing

Rather, Edwin tried to persuade Elin.

“Just pretend you didn’t see it.”

“… … .”

“We are friends, Elin. You know what will happen to me if I find out. Don’t make me a murderer.”

Elin closed her eyes slowly and deeply at those words.

oh

Edwin von Behertio. It really has changed.

“Whether you are a murderer or not is not for me to decide. You don’t know if they’re really dead or not.”

“Is not it? So.”

“and,”

Elin grabbed her sword and took a stance. Any further conversation than this was meaningless.

“It is not for you to decide. Edwin.”

With those words, Elin’s momentum entered into a complete battle.

Edwin looked at him blankly.

Elin, who had previously been cold, was at least angry with him as a friend.

Rebuke and advice to friends. Those things were young coolness.

But now Elin has lost all those private feelings. He just sees Edwin as an enemy.

“… … Elin!!!”

When Edwin shouted, the golem kicked the ground in response.

That heavy body flew towards Elin like an arrow.

sharp sting.

Elin avoided it and found a gap.

‘… … Chit.’

The golem’s spear was accurate.

The gap after the stab was gone as soon as she avoided it.

‘Is it also a golem? I don’t believe in my own durability or defense. It just does what it receives.’

If the golem was a living creature, such a gap would have been easily found. Because a strong body usually depends on it.

‘The odds of me winning are slim. This golem is probably the work of some teacher.’

As for swordsmanship, Elin reached the top class in the entire Constellation. Because of this, her younger sister, Aster, has never defeated her in a mock battle.

So, her swordsmanship is not inferior to the golem’s spears.

just a difference in power.

Even if that golem was just focused on defense, he would be able to block Elin’s mana-loaded attacks with plenty of time.

Even if it pierces through the gap, I wonder if it will be able to properly damage it.

‘You have to finish it quickly.’

When you still have enough mana.

With just one attack, you must make a critical hit.

Koo!

The golem followed Elin with heavy footsteps.

Elin, who had made up her mind, went into defense.

Find a gap in the golem’s attack and aim for a single attack.

The golem persistently pursued Elin, who was avoiding cooking.

The golem that flies through the air with every step of the foot makes the viewer get tired.

However, if the opponent must move as entered,

“after.”

Elin lowered the sword slightly from her body.

intentionally created gaps.

This gap is too obvious for a human to see, but a golem will surely attack this gap. It would have been entered like that.

Huung, with the sound of the wind on his shoulders, the golem slams the spear from top to bottom.

Elin pointed the blade forward, and hit its side against the spear.

When the spear and the blade were attached, her eyes lit up.

Evans is a weapon.

Elin Evans’ unique swordsmanship.

Ilsa (一絲).

Her sword is wrapped around the Auror, and she climbs up the spear and draws a straight line.

At the end of this orbit is the golem’s neck.

A straight line leading up to there is neatly stretched as if measured with a ruler.

‘Okay… … !’

Taang!

However, the trajectory was deviated along the way.

Elin missed the sword.

As long as it lightly relieves the power that went into the spear, and then causes rotation and shock at the same time to numb the opponent’s attack. This technique, which is close to mystery, has been seen by Elin.

‘… … This skill, Atji-senpai’s,’

Thoughts are moments.

Missing her sword, she has no way to stop the golem’s attack.

The golem quickly pulled the spear back and stabbed Elin as if it were splitting the moment.

“Great!”

Elin twisted her body with all her might.

Joo-wook, there was a long scar on his side. I was drawn to that power and rolled over on the floor. It smells like dirt, but the taste of blood fills your mouth.

“Ellin! Give up!!”

Edwin’s voice is heard in the distance.

Jill.

One day, a trusted friend suddenly has a taste. That fact alone blew away all the sleep I had been suffering from.

I also have side pain.

“Ellin!!”

As if responding to Edwin’s words, the golem slowly approached.

The tip of the spear pointed downwards, towards her lying on the floor.

When the golem stood in front of her, the spear was already high up, just above it like a guillotine.

‘Edwin. I didn’t know you’d be like this.’

If you really want to kill Elin here.

When that happens, Edwin crosses a road of no return.

stupid child.

Golem dropped the spear without waiting for Edwin’s command.

Elin closed her eyes.

——Kagang, suddenly a metallic sound was heard.

“… … uh?”

When Elin opened her eyes, the golem’s spear was stuck on the floor, deflecting her.

why?

Elin did not understand for a moment.

Has it disrupted the trajectory of creativity? how?

It is reasonable to think that something was thrown, but there is nothing around. Even the golem himself didn’t seem to understand.

The golem shifted his gaze to somewhere,

Whoops!

raised his chin.

Aww!

Kaang!

Whenever he heard that kind of harsh metallic sound, the golem’s head shook to and fro.

Obviously, it was as if something had been beaten.

Something invisible to Elin’s eyes ripped the golem’s face one after another.

“What, what! Golem! come here!”

Edwin called the golem, perhaps feeling uneasy about the unknown attack.

The golem leaped and guarded Edwin’s side.

And an unfamiliar voice from afar.

“Wow, the distance has increased. The training is worthwhile.”

Elin looked in the direction the voice was coming from.

There was a man there.

As if he had come in a hurry, his shoulders shook, and there was a rough breath mixed with the first voice he uttered.

The eyes reflected in the moonlight looked at Elin.

A reassuring smile. That little smile lights up the darkness of the evening.

‘… … ah.’

Although it was an inappropriate thought in this tense situation.

Elin thought.

‘I thought we should meet someday.’

meet you like this
